The story follows the residents of the titular farm: Mrs. Benta, her grandchildren Pedrinho (Pete in English) and Lucia (nicknamed "Narizinho", which is Portuguese for "Little Nose"), their living and talking toys — Emilia and the Viscount of Corncomb ("Visconte de Sabugosa" as he is called in his original language) —, and housekeeper Aunt Nastácia, as they go through different adventures, exploring and learning new things.
